Cultivation Begins From The Desert

【Gold-Eating Rat】I thought that after escaping back to the old lair on the side of the Red Flame Iron Mine, he could rely on the protection of the poisonous fire scorpion outside to heal his wounds and escape disaster.

It's a pity that it underestimated the means of human immortal cultivators, and even underestimated Zhou Yang's determination to kill it.

Relying on the precise positioning of the "Blood Spirit Seal", the old men Zhou Yang and Zhou Quan relied on the "Earth Dungetsu" and the help of magical weapons to forcefully open a passage and enter the rat hole located 50 to 60 meters deep underground. Jiang generally appeared in front of the 【Gold-eating Rat】 who was sleeping and recuperating.

Then before the big rat woke up from the shock and escaped, the old man Zhou Quan had already blocked the surrounding earth and rocks with the "pointing to the ground into steel" spell.

The most powerful means of escape was blocked, and in such a small space as a mouse hole, how could the [Gold-eating Rat], who was already seriously injured, survive?

After a desperate struggle, the big rat, which had taken dozens of lives, was finally smashed to the head by the old man Zhou Quan with a pumpkin sledgehammer, and died beyond the limit.

"Beast, this is your retribution for cannibalism!"

The old man lightly raised his hand, took back the pumpkin sledgehammer that was splattered with blood, and with a gloomy face, he hit the [Gold-eating Rat] on the head again until it smashed the rat's head into several petals Just give up.

It was also at this time that Zhou Yang realized that the old man was not really completely ruthless, and did not take the lives of ordinary people seriously at all.

It's just that the old man has lived for hundreds of years and is used to seeing life and death. He can hide his emotions well and won't show them easily.

"It's just that it's a bit hypocritical. Don't you want to build a memorial archway for yourself after making paper?"

Thinking of the old man's stern words at the beginning, Zhou Yang couldn't help but complain about the old man's actions.

Of course, as a junior, if he has some opinions in his heart, he will definitely not and dare not say so.

Seniority and inferiority are the basis for the existence of family power. Even if a cultivator pursues freedom and immortality, as long as one day does not truly achieve freedom and immortality, one cannot completely ignore these four characters.

What's more, the current Zhou Yang is not as strong as the old man Zhou Quan.

And just when Zhou Yang was muttering in his heart, the old man Zhou Quan had already retracted the magic weapon, and lightly pouted at him and said: "Xiao Jiu, you can keep this beast's corpse, and please add some more materials later." The old patriarch will refine it, and he will definitely get a few good magic weapons."

Zhou Yang was taken aback, he didn't expect the old man to say that at all, and when he recalled the words that slandered the old man in his heart just now, he immediately felt ashamed, his face flushed and he shook his head repeatedly: "It shouldn't be like this, this is the third grandpa you Killed with one hand, how could my nephew He De dare to accept this thing."

"If you let you hold it, you can hold it. Third grandfather, I am already at this age. If you give me a third-level magic weapon, a fourth-level magic weapon, how many more years will it last? Besides, you are about to be promoted to the late stage of Qi training. At the late stage of Qi training, you don't have many magical weapons in your hands, how can you win in the future when you fight with others?"

The old man Zhou Quan stared at Zhou Yang with an unhappy face, as if Zhou Yang didn't accept this gift because he looked down on him.

Seeing this, Zhou Yang felt even more ashamed in his heart, and still declined, saying: "Third Grandpa loves it so much, and my nephew loves it, but this thing is so precious, my nephew and grandson are ashamed to take it, ashamed to take it!"

His expression did not seem to be fake, old man Zhou Quan couldn't help being confused when he saw it.

What's happening here?

The current juniors are really incomprehensible!

The old man stared at Zhou Yang suspiciously, looked again and again, and finally couldn't help asking: "What are you ashamed of? This beast was discovered and hunted by you and the old man together, and it was those loose cultivators We form a team to hunt monsters, and those who see it have a share, let alone you and me?"

What puzzled him the most was that here, although Zhou's family was well educated and all members of the clan were united and friendly, there was no rule that only the elders should eat meat and the younger generations should not eat soup.

The old man has lived for hundreds of years, and he has seen and experienced many people who have dealt with immortals. He can still tell whether a person's face is sincere or false.

He could see that the ashamed look on Zhou Yang's face was definitely from the heart, and it couldn't be faked at all.

But of course Zhou Yang would not say what he had just arranged in his mind for the old man. Faced with the old man's questions and gaze, he just lowered his head and said nothing, just wanting to expose this matter as soon as possible.

Seeing this, the old man couldn't bear to persecute him anymore, and finally he could only say helplessly: "If you really feel sorry, just treat it as the favor left by the third grandpa to take care of your second brother in advance!"

After speaking, the old man was afraid that Zhou Yang would not agree, so he left the mouse hole directly with a "earth escape technique". If someone who didn't know it saw his hurried appearance, he might mistakenly think that the old man had a guilty conscience. Don't dare to face Zhou Yang!

This result was completely unexpected by Zhou Yang, so that he was completely stunned.

After a while, he recovered from his daze, and then he couldn't help but sighed with a wry smile: "That's all, there is a saying: give it by the elders, don't dare to resign, just like what the third grandfather said, today I will give you a gift." After accepting his favor, I will find a chance to return it to my second brother and the others in the future!"

Putting away the body of the [Gold-Eating Rat], Zhou Yang rummaged through the rats for a while, and found some feces left by the [Gold-Eating Rat].

The feces of [gold-eating rats] are also treasures, because they like to devour metals by nature, and the feces of [gold-eating rats] sometimes contain some special spiritual gold that they cannot absorb and digest. If it is added at the time of magic weapon, it can slightly increase the refining efficiency, and it is also an excellent material for repairing damaged magic weapon.

Zhou Yang collected a lot of feces pulled out by [Gold-eating Rats] after devouring the fine iron ore in the nest of [Gold-Eating Rats] in the fine iron ore veins, and now he has collected some [Gold-eating Rats] devouring the iron ore. The feces pulled by the red flame iron.

When he goes back and uses the refining technique to extract the special spirit gold in the feces, it will be of great use when he refines second-level or even third-level magic weapons in the future.

After scraping the ground three feet away to clean up the rat hole, Zhou Yang quickly escaped back to the ground with the "earth escape technique", joining the old man Zhou Quan who was waiting on it.

"Xiao Jiu, you said earlier that you would kill the [Gold-eating Rat], but now that this monster is dead, what are you going to do next?"

When the old man saw Zhou Yang coming up, he glanced at the bulging storage bag on his waist, but he talked about the previous test again.

"What should we do next? Didn't the third grandfather already have a decision in his heart?"

Zhou Yang looked at the old man with a surprised face, and with a confident smile on his face, he confidently expressed the plan in the old man's mind.

"Regardless of whether there is a third-level [Poisonous Fire Scorpion King] here, the two of us cannot deal with hundreds of poisonous fire scorpions, so why should we take the risk to find out if there are any [Poisonous Fire Scorpion Kings]? Of course, return to Qingping Mountain first, and the third grandpa will report this matter to the old patriarch, and let the old patriarch decide the matter."

Clap clap!

When the applause sounded, the old man Zhou Quan looked at Zhou Yang with a look of relief, applauded, and praised sincerely: "Well said! You are indeed the unicorn of the Zhou family that the old patriarch himself asserted, Xiao Jiu, you are a wise and famous old man I have heard about it for a long time, but I just found out today that you are not only precocious, but also have a strategic mind, know how to advance and retreat, and understand the importance. This ability to judge the situation, looking at the two generations of monks of my Zhou family Xuanyuan, who can match you is absolutely No more than three people!"

After finishing speaking, the old man’s face straightened, he looked at Zhou Yang solemnly and said, “Yes, this old man really thinks like Xiaojiu you said, today I will give you a piece of advice. For things with risks, unless there is a reason to fight, you must restrain all greed and curiosity, and the most important thing in everything is to save your own life. You have to remember that only when people are alive, chances are Chance, otherwise the person dies, no matter how good the chance is, it has nothing to do with you!"

"Third Grandpa's advice, my nephews and grandchildren will keep it in mind, thank you Third Grandpa for teaching."

Zhou Yang respectfully bowed to the old man and thanked the old man for his advice.

Although he knew this truth a long time ago, the old man's advice is not only the golden and jade words he summed up with his life experience, but also contains the elder's deep love for the younger generation. Only this kind of love cannot be ignored.

The old man Zhou Quan accepted his gift calmly, and then he thought of something, and sighed with a complicated expression:

"Just remember, our Zhou family will rely on you juniors in the future. We old people are old, and now we can only pass on the insights and experiences that we have summed up with our lives to you. I look forward to your future practice. You can avoid the detours we have taken, and don't lose your life on these detours like your uncles and uncles who died young!"

When Zhou Yang heard the old man's words, he knew that the old man was expressing his feelings. He thought of those members of the Zhou family who had died violently over the years.

There are many dangers in the boundless sand sea, not only natural disasters and monsters, but also man-made disasters.

The sea of ​​sand is vast, and there are countless oases among them. In addition to the cultivating families like the Zhou family who occupy an oasis to practice, there are many small oases that are not suitable for a large population to be occupied by those lone cultivators.

These casual cultivators do not have the systematic inheritance of skills and equipment and alchemy inheritance like family monks and sect monks, nor do they receive sect benefits and family benefits. Monster beasts or collect elixir and bring them to the Immortal Cultivator Square City, and sell them to the shops opened by the Cultivator family and sect in exchange.

Where there is business, there will naturally be killing.

Hunting monsters and collecting elixir can be exchanged for spirit stone pills, and hunting monks can also get these.

Therefore, many casual cultivators simply formed gangs and became sand bandits in the sand sea, and started business without capital, killing and plundering other monks' property to help them practice.

Even some powerful casual cultivators will deliberately leave spiritual objects in the desert to set up traps, and then release news of treasures everywhere, waiting for those monks who think they have hit a chance to come to their door

And the sea of ​​sand is vast, as long as the hands and feet are clean, or find a small oasis where no one knows after success, no one will know who the murderer is, and it will be difficult to find.

There are a total of 13 monks of the "Guang" generation and 18 monks of the "Xuan" generation on the Zhou family tree, but there are only 18 monks who are still alive!

Of the 13 people who disappeared, except for 3 who died accidentally in the mouth of monsters, the remaining 10 people lost their news for no apparent reason when they left the family to perform family tasks or went on adventure tours, and even their bones were found. less than.

Compared with poor casual cultivators, rich family monks and sect monks are sometimes more likely to become the targets of those villains.

For this reason, the Zhou family and many immortal cultivating families have specially set up family rules. All family monks who have not reached the late stage of Qi training are absolutely not allowed to leave the family to travel and explore adventures alone.

The old man Zhou Quan has lived for hundreds of years. Of course, he has encountered many attacks and killings by casual cultivators, and has experienced many traps and temptations. He has survived until now, and he has also contaminated many lives on his hands.

So when he said that it was the experience and insights summed up from his life, he was absolutely not exaggerating.

Ask for a recommendation ticket, ask for a collection, ask for a new book investment group, and there will be a small recommendation after 100 people invest. A small transparent author like me does not have a large readership, and there is no channel for promoting books. I can only count on the poor website. Give a small recommendation and expose it!
